QUOTE(alwinc @ May 13 2007, 08:59 PM) you can either use 3.5mm to 3.5mm jack at the headphone out. Or u can use the lineout of the ipod by using a custom cable. You can ask this guy to make for you:custom cable |

i pod jack is universal (use the headphone jack )
so if your car has an normal input then any normal cable will suffice (something like the one you connect from your pc to ur speaker will do) however...sound quality is only so so if you have cash to spend then perhaps you should check out some Head Units that has a ipod interface Alpine , Pioneer and Panasonic carry models with such functions cables are around rm 150 to rm 200 cheers! |

QUOTE(camel90 @ Aug 31 2007, 08:33 PM) hurmm....how 2 describe ah? hm...Ok...if the one on your earphone jack should be a 3.5mm jack since that is a standard for ipods and most mp3 players. The one on the radio (i assume the HU), it can be rca or the 3.5mm jack. If the size of the jack is the same as the earphone jack, than the wire you need is 3.5mm to 3.5mm connector which can be bought it most electrical shops. its like i want to connect my ipod through the earphone's jack into the cd changer port on the radio? got it ah? sry liao, me noob in these things though this is the rca. To put it simple it is the one where you usually connect your dvd, vcd players |

this is the back of my radio..
i actually want to connect the ipod to the rca port as u mentioned.... but when i connected it to port labelled a and b it juz didnt working. well, to be honest i tried it during the fm and cassette mode because i didnt know how to make my radio change to cdchanger mode (my wira's radio got cdchanger funciton NWay so, right now im thinkin of finding an adapter that can connect that headphone output(3.5mm thingy as u mentioned) to cdchanger port instead, isit possible such a device/wire exist in market? NWay, if anyone knows how to make my clarion unit in wira change to cdchanger mode please let me know because im gona tried it once again the things that i mentioned about connecting to port labelled a and b..... of coz im thinkin of buyin cheap cd/mp3 player from sony or etc as my final option. but, i can cut down the cost if i can make those things done without needed of buyin new hu.. thanx in advance Added on September 1, 2007, 6:08 pmps: i lost the manual of the radio alrdy This post has been edited by camel90: Sep 1 2007, 06:08 PM Attached thumbnail(s) |

As for the cd changer, I'm not sure whether anything else other than the cd changer can be used or not. btw, the HU you using is it the same as the old waja? |

ok....if you have about 400 to use.....why dont you top up a little extra to get an Alpine or a Panasonic head unit...
panasonic: CQ-C3305W about rm 500+ CQ-C5305W about 600 + panasonic cables (for the Ipod) is about 150-200 Alpine: i was quoted rm 550-600 CDE-9870E cable about 150-180 i would recommend this set up as sound quality is much better and you can change your songs without touching your ipod(so just keep it in the glove compartment or something). it also charges you ipod while connected i hope this helps! |

QUOTE(camel90 @ Sep 3 2007, 07:28 PM) haha, yeah, should be ok if you are not that really that hardcore for SQ. Get pioneer. All of the new model have aux in infront, so you can plug in your ipod easily. 3.5mm to 3.5mm should cost less than 10 bux. No need to buy those expensive cables. Got different in the SQ, however, for most of the people, they couldn't be bother alsoyea....i did keep pressing the knob or sumthn..but it doesnt work though.. haha....well, be4 i decide to buy ill juz wait a bit lah maybe who knows how... if not, ill spend around 400 buy cheap2 mp3 player from sony maybe....400 good enough ar? haha |
